Kicking Horse Blog by Ken

It was a nice change today at Kicking Horse.  No lift lines and that is time for me to ski. It was quite windy at the top with poor visibility.  But once you got off the top it was fine and the snow was very nice. We received well over 40 cms of new snow in the past few days.  The best run I had was into SuperBowl.  I questioned myself a few times for going there since I couldn't see anything but it kept most people from going there.  And I found out it wasn't open on Sunday.  That's why I had about a knee high powder.  Very nice. Great bunch of guests including a group who have been coming for years to stay with us.  We have 1 room left for the weekend coming up.  $295 plus tax(double occupancy).

Golden Nordic Club's facility, the Dawn Mountain Nordic Centre is one of the hidden gems in the Golden Area.  They have about 30 km of a variety of loops just a few minutes ski from Vagabond Lodge. With all the nice snow we have had in the past few weeks the conditions are already great with the loops all groomed and track-set.  I went for my first ski the other day.
